Reolink 4K PoE Security Camera with Human/Vehicle Detection, 5X Optical Zoom Outdoor IP Camera with Spotlight, Color Night Vision Motion Alerts Time-Lapse Two-Way Audio, RLC-811A

Product Information

The Reolink RLC-810A is an outdoor, bullet-IP camera, and primarily a Power over Ethernet ( PoE) camera. It is IP66 ratedand can also be powered up with a 12 Volts, 1 Amp, D.C adapter with less than 12 Watts of power. PTZ left, right, up, down, zoom in and zoom out will continually move the camera in the respective position until the PTZ stop is called or the hardware limit is reached.

The only reason why you would consider the Reolink RLC-810A over the Reolink RLC-811A is that it is more affordable. Why should you not consider the Reolink RLC-810A? Step 1. Launch the Reolink App and log in to your Reolink account, and then you will find the Smart Home option. With regards to voice controls, only support for Google Assistant is available on either the Reolink RLC-810A or Reolink RLC-811A. You can go ahead to set up your smart device with either camera. The RLC 810A (4.0 mm) has a lens specification of f-4.0 mm, and F-2.0, while its field of view is 87° to the horizontal, 47° to the vertical, and a 30-meter night vision distance.For redundancy, these sensors are polled every 60 seconds together with the update of all other entities. The RLC-811A obviously edges the RLC-810A with its spotlights, zoom, and CMOS sensor, but aside from these both cameras can rival. You’ll need to provide your own PoE injector or use a switch that provides this, but at least you cut down cable clutter to just a single Ethernet cable. Reolink provides a waterproof connector for the Ethernet connection, which screws into place. It was a little tight to fit around the connector on my long Ethernet cable. I just got one of the new 1212A cameras last week, and I haven't decided where to put it yet, so I decided to temporarily mount it right beside my 811A and do some side-by-side testing. Hell, I may even find that it's going to replace the 811A. Not so with the Reolink RLC-811A, which has a metal housing and a reassuring heft to its body. Eagle-eyed readers may spot that this looks very similar to the Reolink RLC-810A.

The tear-down process involves removing the four screws from the rear side of the camera and then to slide the front section to reveal the internal components. This way, I was able to identify the NT98523MBG 2004-BB T8N60400 processor, 256 MB of RAM from SKHynix (H5TQ2G63GFR RDC 928V NWMN7918WH), 128 MB of flash memory (GigaDevice FP2024 5F1GQ4UBYIG) and a Ruimeng MS41929 JCQA05 IC. So it’s not just the internal layout that’s almost identical to the RLC-511WA, but the components are also the same, minus the RAM which comes from a different manufacturer.The Images stream provides a sequence of image snapshots giving very low latency at the cost of a very low frame rate; this can be used when the RTMP/RTSP/FLV video stream has too much lag.

As we review the Reolink RLC-810A vs. Reolink RLC-811A, you will get a full understanding of both, and in the end, be able to make an informed decision. When the floodlight entity is ON always ON, when OFF controlled based on the internal camera floodlight mode (Off, Auto, Schedule), see the Floodlight mode select entity. The Reolink RLC-810A and Reolink RLC-811A are extremely rugged outdoor IP cameras that can give you the home or office surveillance you require. Another reason I like this is that it's significantly smaller than the 811A. That was one of the things that had me debating even getting the 811A a few months ago. Here they are together: https://imgur.com/a/45RBimM The Reolink RLC-810A and Reolink RLC-811A are both PoE cameras and if you are a newbie with PoE connections, you may not like the idea that you have to deal with cables. But again, a lot of users like PoE connections as they believe it is more reliable.The Reolink RLC-810A is a Power over Ethernet (PoE) camera. This means the camera cannot directly be connected to a Wi-Fi network. You must have to use an Ethernet cable with the camera. If where you want to mount the camera is longer than 1 meter, then the Ethernet cable included in the box will not be enough. To help compare the fields of view of these, here's a comparison of those last two pics with the 1212A scaled down to the same resolution of the 811A: https://imgur.com/a/eES2owj b. If you can’t find the corresponding model for Model settings, just use the first default *model, no modification is required, and the model is not required to be correct. These are all taken with only the lights for the cam the screenshot was taken of. For example, in the IR lights screenshot of the 1212A, only its IR lights are on, not both. PTZ preset positions can be set in the Reolink app/windows/web client, the names of the presets will be loaded into Home Assistant at the start of the integration. When adding new preset positions, please restart the Reolink integration.

To set up the camera, you need to connect the camera to a PoE switch/injector for network connection. After that, you may finish the initial setup via both Reolink App and Reolink Client. Overall, both cameras perform satisfactorily, but let’s see the reasons why you may consider one over the other. Why should you consider the Reolink RLC-810A? For example, putting the camera under the eaves of your house could be a good idea, as it keeps it away from thieves, while the zoom lets you still capture what you need to.You can choose to add an SD card to the camera if you do not want to use an NVR. You can not use Reolink's cloud storage with this model at the moment. However, cameras like the Reolink Go PT, Argus 3, Argus PT, and E1 Zoom do use this feature. The major distinguishing factors that the Reolink RLC-811A has over the Reolink RLC-810A are that it is built with spotlights and has 5x zooming capability. The Reolink RLC-810A does not have spotlights or zoom. Why should you not consider the Reolink RLC-811A? What has me interested in this camera (and especially its upcoming turret counterpart, the 1224A) is the large field of view at 107x66, which I believe is now the largest FoV that they have, beating the 811A which is 105x55. Not a huge difference, but that 11° vertical difference actually is nice for capturing more area underneath the camera, as you'll see below. You can specify when you want the siren to sound and set schedules for when detected motion will not trigger the siren. You can also select zones that the camera will ignore and will not trigger an alert and how sensitive you want the camera to be. Firstly, the Reolink RLC-810A comes in three variants. The RLC-810A (2.8mm), RLC-810A (4.0mm), and RLC-810A (6.0mm). The differences between them are in their Lenses, Field of View, and Night Vision Distance. The RLC 810A (2.8 mm) has a lens specification of f-2.8 mm, and F-2.0, while its field of view is 101° to the horizontal, 55° to the vertical and a 30-meter night vision distance.
